Debit Card Overdraft Services

Overdraft services include how Fremont Bank handles transactions that overdraw your account. If you would like to have your transactions approved at our discretion, consider adding Debit Card Overdraft Service to your checking account, which may help you to avoid ATM and everyday debit card declines. It's free to enroll in the service but if we authorize and pay overdrafts on an ATM or everyday debit card transaction, an overdraft fee will apply.

An overdraft occurs when you do not have enough money in your account to cover a transaction, but we pay it anyway. We can cover your overdrafts in two different ways:

We have standard overdrafts practices that come with your account.

We also offer overdraft protection plans, such as a link to a savings account, which may be less expensive than our standard practices. To learn more, ask us about these plans.
